BASE BALL REVIVED.
A New Home Club Organized Last
Evening.
The Officers and Players Committees
Appointed, Etc---The Plans for the
Season.

A meeting of about twenty ball play
ers and others interested in the diamond
field game in Rock Island, was held at
the Rock Island house last evening. Mr..
J. F. Munger was called to the chair,
and plans for a local ball club composed
wholly of Rock Island players the best
material of the Nine Stars and Central
City clubs fully discussed. An organize
ton to be known as the Rock Island
Base Ball Club" was perfected, with the
appointment of J. F. Munger as man-
sger, T. F. Wheelon secretary, Geo.
Rispen captain and john Rosine assistant.
Messrs J. F. Munger, 7. +. Whelan
and W. R. johnson were appointed
committee on securing a park or suitable
grounds, and application will then be
an outfit The purpose is to have the
club as inexpensive as possible, aud have
the admission only large enough TO de>
fray the ordinary expenses There is no
idea of making any money out of the or
ganization There are about twelve men
in the club, all good players, ami the
regular playing nine will probably be
composed of the following: Rispen first
baseman, Hinckley second base and
change pitcher, Tolliver third base, Ro,
sine catcher. Snyder pitcher. Oswald
short stop and change pitcher, Scberer
fielder and change catcher. and Browncr
and Olson fielders.
The organization of the Rock Island

Tri city league such as mas been here
tofore suggested, and thus will be afford
ed sport for the local public at little eX-
ppuSp.

The will of the late Charles Atkinson
has been read, and is found To contain
three public requests of Sl0,000-or an
aggregate of $4,000 for religious and
educational work. One of these requests
is to the Congregational church of Mo
line. The money is to be placed at in-
terest for the church, and the under
standing is that the interest may be
drawn annually by the church for any
necessary expenses The second is to
the Geneseo Normal school. Coupled
with this bequest are certain conditions
which can be easily complied with The
third is to the Christian educational in.

Here is what the Springfield Mass J
Republican of March 25 SAYS of Stetson S
Burlesque company, which appears at
Harper's theatre next week:
Stetson's Big Buresque company drew
even larger audience last night than the
first The change in the programme was
not a happy one We think ATLANTA"
brings out the several merits of the entire
company much better than "Elvria" while
the music and racy comedy of the latter
is inferior Although the charming
vivacity and sparkling fun of Miss Josie
Lang caught on" the delicate comedy
acting of Miss Ten Eycke and Mr. Hart
is not brought out to such admirable sd =
vantage AS in Atlanta The company
left for Boston this morning.
